 * Very frustrating. Just upgraded 1.5 to 2.5.1. In the process of backing up, restoring,
   and upgrading the database, one page has altered PHP code. This: <?php bloginfo(‘
   url’); ?> appears as this: %3C?php bloginfo(‘url’); ?>
 * Every time I correct it, it reverts to the incorrect code. I’ve even deleted 
   the page and recreated it. Any ideas?

 * Is this code in a page’s content, or in a template?

 * You need a plugin to use php in the page content. Which plugin are you using?

 * I bet you’re right. Thanks all. I haven’t re-installed plugins yet after moving
   and updgrading the site. Appreciate it.
